Comment 11 for bug 1587808

I created an emulator instance using revision 19. I verified indeed that it's running NM , per comment #8. The indicator shows that airplane mode is active, although urfill isn't running ( /usr/share/urfkill/scripts/flight-mode throws an error ). When I run 'nmcli d', I see that ril_0 ( the modem ) is unavailable, and then I see a number of ethernet devices listed, all which are reported as "unmanaged". This means NM isn't managing the devices. In the case of the emulator, 'eth0' is configured in /etc/network/interfaces like this:

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
    address 10.0.2.15
    netmask 255.255.255.0
    gateway 10.0.2.2
    dns-nameservers 10.0.2.3

To confirm that NM really doesn't effect the default networking in the emulator, I dropped an upstart override containing "manual" into /etc/init, and re-started the emulator. I re-started, confirmed NM was longer running, and then used wget to pull down a webpage ( slashdot.org ).

Next I created an emulator using the latest rc image ( #23 ), and after swiping down in the OOB/How-To-Swipe app, I get a white screen, and the apps scope is never displayed, nor does the launcher appear when dragging from the left.

I re-created an emulator using revision 20, with the same effect. If I kill the instance, and restart, after entering the device PIN, I again just get a white screen. phablet-screenshot isn't able to grab an image either...

The last thing I see on the console is:

[ 4.994175] systemd-logind[606]: Failed to start user service: Unknown unit: user@0.service

I see these same errors with revision 19, so they don't seem to be the cause of the networking and/or unity errors.

@Dave

Could you try to disable NM startup per my instructions above and see if you get the same results?
